by John BushFiddler Uncle Eck Dunford recorded several sides for Victor during the late 20s, though hes best-known for his partnership with Ernest Pop Stoneman (of the Stoneman Family). Dunford and his band the Bogtrotters were based in Galax, Virginia, a city renowned as one of the centers of old-timey music and famous for its fiddlers conventions. Quite a colorful personality according to local sources, Dunford appeared on many of Stonemans recordings, though he only recorded sparingly on his own. One of his songs, Old Shoes and Leggins, gained a bit of fame though, after it was included on Harry Smiths 1952 folksong collection Anthology of American Folk Music.
